Hydrofoils are extremely fascinating machines. They and Hovercraft have captured my attention for some time now.



For a full history of Red funnel Hydrofoils this link will reward with great photo coverage! More Hydrofoil photos and figures can be found on International Hydrofoil society page.

For a wonderful source of inspiration and vintage pictures of Hovercraft and Hydrofoils and a number of usable plans and photos I highly recommend acquiring a copy of : Jane's Surface Skimmer systems 1969-70

I have been taking one of those when i was quite young -what i can remember is the terrible smell of seasickness in the passenger's cabin one great model from Jim Baumann, but i prefer it when i can't even pronounce the name of the ships he builds!
